exatreide Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Hey Folks, Is anyone else here a fan of the Expanse? It's currently on Amazon Prime and heading into its last season (season six). I really enjoy it, the political aspects of it between the three factions (Earth, Mars and the Belt), the action side, and the unknown aspect of the protomolucle. It's always a book series that is quite an entertaining read as well (on book two my self). Anyone else a fan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I think it is really great. Not since Babylon 5 + Battlestar Galactica (2003) has there been such a great scifi. Babylon 5 politics + Battlestar Galactica action. Has books to follow the story so it is already all structured well. I assume you're caught up to the end of season 5? I havn't read books. Gob mentioned it in the picard series thread I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I've read all the books/novellas and really like the series. The authors have done a great job creating a realistic universe similar to what Andy Weir did with The Martian. The TV show is great but I definitely prefer the books as they have more character development and delve into things in more detail than the show ever could. Unfortunately the current show will end at book 6 (~30 year time gap between book 6 and 7) so hopefully they are successful at finding a way to get the last 3 books on TV.

exatreide Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 Well, the conclusion of the series happened a few months ago. I was pretty happy with how it ended, but it did seem to leave enough open to have a season or two for last couple books. I'm currently rocking the second audio book and it's really well done.

Gobalopper Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Have you read the final novella (The Sins of Our Fathers)? Or the other novellas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exatreide Posted April 6, 2022 Author Share Posted April 6, 2022 I haven't yet, I'm listening to the series on audio book, I'm a little bit half way through book three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
